NARRAGANSETTâ€”Oftentimes when a personâ€™s life has presented many challenges and obstacles along the way, there may be no greater achievement than to be recognized for oneâ€™s work when evening begins to fall.

NARRAGANSETT â€“ Rachel Dâ€™Ambrosio grew up on the water, water skiing, knee boarding and swimming. During those summer days, Dâ€™Ambrosio applied a 30 SPF sunscreen because she was fair skinned.
